Don't have the money right now, I tend to find out how much what I want costs, and then save for it. As far as the airsoft goes, I guess that I'll be the experimenter then(no one to battle, so soda cans must die in the place of other tanks). As far as the speed controls go, do the kits come with them, or do you need to buy them separate? As far as the radio gear goes, I have a 7 channel computer radio and numerous receivers courtesy of a far gone heli and several planes(should only need 5 channels I would think). Thanks for the prompt answers. Should be able afford the kit in about a month. Plenty of time to gather photos and information for accurate weathering.
